Does a cumulative score of 3 points mean 3 points have been deducted?
2 Answers
The only difference between recording 3 points and deducting 3 points is that recording 3 points starts the scoring cycle from zero, while deducting 3 points is based on an existing score. Below are relevant explanations about point deductions: 1. Point Deduction: The cumulative scoring cycle for road traffic safety violations (i.e., the scoring cycle) is 12 months, with a full score of 12 points. If you accumulate 12 points, you must go to the vehicle management office at the place where your driver's license was issued or where the violation occurred to participate in study sessions and pass the subject one exam before your points can be reset to zero. Otherwise, your driver's license cannot be used normally. 2. Notes: If you accumulate fewer than 12 points in a scoring cycle (12 months calculated from the "initial license date" on your driver's license), you only need to pay the fine. If you accumulate 12 points in a scoring cycle, you must go to the issuing vehicle management office or the vehicle management office where the violation occurred to participate in study sessions and pass the subject one exam before the full-point record can be cleared and your driver's license can be restored to normal use.
I've been driving for over twenty years, and accumulating 3 points means my driver's license has been deducted 3 points. The initial score of a driver's license is 12 points, and each violation like speeding or running a red light will deduct some points. When I was younger, I was fined for accidentally speeding on the highway, losing 2 points plus a fine—that was a profound lesson. When accumulated points from violations reach a certain amount, such as losing all 12 points, you have to attend traffic rule courses and can't drive anymore, affecting work and life. So these 3 points indicate you've made mistakes, reminding us to drive safely. Preventive methods include familiarizing yourself with road signs, avoiding driving while fatigued, using navigation apps to alert speed limit zones, and prioritizing safety to avoid accidents and trouble. Remember, a single violation not only deducts points but can also result in fines or even license revocation.
